    While the efforts are on to rescue the workers trapped in the coal mine at 3 Kilo Coal Quarry in Umrangso area of Assam, second body was recovered recently.

High capacity pumps were employed by the teams to fasten the rescue operation. Second body was recovered on January 11, after water level decreased rapidly in the mine. Water level in the mine reduced by 6 metres after 5 pumps worked overnight: NDRF Inspector. Inspector Roshan Kumar Singh, Team Commander, NDRF, said, “We check the water level every morning. And when we were doing that, we saw a body floating. So we took it out at around 7:30 am. The water level has been reduced by 6 metres. 5 pumps were working overnight. The operation is going on 24 hours.”
